Marchesini Forged Aluminium M7RS GENESI For YAMAHA YZF-R6 (2017 -)

Marchesini M7RS GENESI Forged Aluminium Wheels - YZF-R6 (2017+)

Unlock superior performance with Marchesini M7RS GENESI Forged Aluminium wheels for your Yamaha YZF-R6 (2017+). Reduced weight, faster handling, and race-proven design.

The Marchesini M7RS GENESI Forged Aluminium Wheel Set for the Yamaha YZF-R6 (2017 onwards) represents the pinnacle of street and track-day wheel technology. Derived directly from Marchesini's championship-winning MotoGP and WSBK race wheels, the M7RS Genesi is engineered for riders who demand maximum performance without the extreme cost of magnesium Manufactured using a high-precision, multi-directional closed-die forging process from a high-performance aluminium alloy, these 7-spoke wheels achieve an exceptional balance of low weight, structural rigidity, and reliability. This sophisticated forging process optimizes the material's mechanical properties, resulting in a significant weight reduction of 16% to 33% compared to the original equipment (OE) wheels. A complete set weighs only about 8.3 kg. Reducing unsprung and rotating mass directly translates to a massive improvement in all dynamic aspects of the motorcycle: shorter braking distances, sharper acceleration, and faster, more precise cornering. The seven-spoke design is optimized for stiffness and even radial load distribution, while the aggressive, race-inspired aesthetic transforms the look of your R6. The kit is supplied ready for installation, including all necessary bearings and spacers, and features advanced details like a 90-degree valve stem for easier tire maintenance and an anti-slip treatment on the rear rim to prevent tire movement under extreme track conditions. Upgrade to the M7RS GENESI and feel the confidence of a race-level wheel on every ride.

Best Uses

1. Track Days & Racing: The substantial reduction in rotational inertia is immediately noticeable, making the bike more agile, allowing for later braking, and quicker acceleration out of corners.
2. High-Performance Street Riding: For the enthusiast who wants the best handling and responsiveness on their local mountain pass or spirited road rides.
3. Performance Upgrade: The single most effective upgrade for improving a sportbike's handling dynamics, offering a better feeling and connection to the road.
4. Aesthetic Enhancement: The aggressive, race-derived 7-spoke design provides an unmistakable, high-end, factory-racing look.

 Features

1. Multi-Directional Closed-Die Forging: Uses a high-precision manufacturing process and aerospace-grade aluminium alloy (AA6009/T1) for superior mechanical strength and minimal weight.
2. Significant Weight Reduction: Achieves a weight savings of 16% to 33% compared to OE wheels, with a set weight of approximately 8.3 kg (front + rear).
3. 7-Spoke Race Design: The signature spoke pattern is structurally optimized to maximize hub-to-rim rigidity and ensure even radial load distribution for predictable handling.
4. Anti-Slip Rim Treatment: An innovative coating on the inside of the rear rim prevents tire slippage/creep under severe acceleration and braking forces (common in racing).
5. Ready-to-Install Kit: Supplied complete with all necessary components, including bearings, spacers, and a Marchesini-standard sprocket carrier for a straightforward fitment.

 Benefits

1. Superior Handling and Agility: Dramatically reduces gyroscopic effect and unsprung mass, resulting in lightning-fast turn-in, lighter steering, and quicker direction changes.
2. Enhanced Acceleration: Lower rotational inertia allows the engine's power to spin up the wheel faster, leading to a noticeable improvement in straight-line acceleration.
3. Shorter Braking Distances: The reduction in rotating mass lessens the momentum the brakes need to overcome, improving stopping power and feel, and reducing fade.
4. Increased Rider Feedback: The high stiffness of the forged structure transmits a more precise and accurate feel of the road surface and tire grip directly to the rider.
5. Race-Proven Reliability: Developed using the same structural analysis and testing methods as their MotoGP wheels, ensuring exceptional reliability and durability for both road and track use.
